Washington State Auditor Recording Fees

In the March/April 2008 Everton's Genealogical Helper is an small article titled "Washington State Auditor Recording Fees Bump Up to Help Fund the Heritage Center Project" On January 1, 2008 went up $2 to help pay for the new Heritage Center project, which is designed to hold the state archives, the state library, and other offices on the Capitol Campus.The important part of this is that RECORDING fees are going up, but genealogists seldom do recording, they want photocopies. In the Spokane Courthouse the Auditors office still charges $1 a page ($3 certified) for copies.
